As a Software System Integration Test (SSIT) Engineer at Qualcomm, you will be part of the AISW engineering team focusing on the Delegates portfolio, including ONNX Runtime and ExecuTorch. Your role will involve owning subsystem-level validation during feature development, ensuring quality from inception rather than acting as a downstream gatekeeper. You will collaborate closely with software engineers to define test strategies and develop automated test content. This position emphasizes a shift-left quality approach, integrating testing early in the development process.

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 4+ years of Software Engineering or related work experience, or a Master's degree with 3+ years, or a PhD with 2+ years.
• 2+ years of work experience with programming languages such as C, C++, Java, or Python.
• Strong Python skills with proven experience in building automated test frameworks.
• C/C++ reading proficiency sufficient to debug delegate and runtime issues.
• Experience with CI/CD platforms and integrating test automation into build pipelines.

• Partner with delegate engineers to define testability requirements and acceptance criteria.
• Own SSIT test strategy per feature, including scope, entry/exit criteria, and coverage targets.
• Develop and maintain automated test content targeting subsystem boundaries.
• Validate on-device behavior on Snapdragon SoCs using HIL infrastructure.
• Triage failures and isolate root causes across the delegate stack.
• Define and own handoff criteria from SSIT to QA and SIT.
• Serve as the primary technical liaison between the Delegates development team and QA/SIT.
• Mentor junior and senior SSIT engineers and establish team norms for test coverage.

• Qualcomm offers competitive compensation, annual bonuses, stock programs, comprehensive healthcare coverage, retirement plans, wellness programs, parental leave, flexible work options, and professional development opportunities.
